Hey all,

Did a quick search yesterday and didnt find much on where to get it in melb so had a look on there site closest was Bursons they are asking $143 for 4ltrs for lightweight shockproof.

Is there any better places to get it from or any better oils when i did an oil change in my GTS4 last time i just used penrite and i still got the synchro crunch on lazy changes.

Ive heard that it helps a lot with the crunching?

Any help would be great thanks David

I would be surprised if this does stop crunching (assuming it the same redline gearbox oil I used in the Evo). This oil is awesome when the gearbox is warm but makes the gearbox crunchy and notchy around town while it is cold. To cure the crunching, I use Castrol Syntrax which is thicker and more driveable around town.

Maybe different for skylines but didnt work for me as I also put it in for that purpose.

As for where to get it, Jeff at Techsport supplied and put it in mine and I dont remember it being this much.

do a search covered before in fact there is a whole thread on it in General.

email harold. http://www.performancelub.com [[email protected]]

he will do you the best deal a snot retail pricing markup, check oil thread if you want more info. he is in Melb if you want pickup...$18/qt is pretty cheap.

If its std g/b I would just use MT90...not shockproof as its a GEAR OIL, not the same friction modifiers included as say mt90 or Syntrax or Syntrans...which btw are different. be fine.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
